The "Sword of Solomon" isn't mentioned directly in any canonical texts of the Bible, Psalms, or recognized Apocrypha. However, King Solomon is famously associated with wisdom and his reign, including stories about his judgment and building of the Temple in Jerusalem, but not with a particular sword.
The idea of a "Sword of Solomon" likely originates from later mythological and esoteric traditions. It is sometimes featured in various grimoires and magical texts, where Solomon's name is often invoked due to his legendary mastery over demons and spirits, as detailed in texts like the "Testament of Solomon" and the "Key of Solomon." These texts, while not part of standard religious canon, have influenced various folklore and mystical traditions, attributing various magical items and powers to Solomon.
This concept might also blend with the legends surrounding other mythic swords in different traditions, like King Arthur's Excalibur, adding a layer of mystical allure and authority to the figure of Solomon.
